“This is not another book telling you what to do with your body; it is an invitation to listen, to tend, and to reclaim your womb as a source of wisdom, resilience, and healing” —Pregnancy Magazine
A heart-centered, science-based guide for women navigating fertility, pregnancy, loss, and what might come between and after
Every reproductive journey has unexpected bumps along the way, small and sometimes big. Whether you’re preparing or trying to conceive, moving through pregnancy, processing loss or finding your footing afterward, or moving into menopause, caring for your reproductive health starts with connecting with your body.
From her work as a physical therapist specializing in pelvic health as well as her own lived experience with pregnancy loss and secondary infertility, Dr. “Tia” Anietie Ukpe-Wallace understands intimately the dysfunction that arises when we’re disconnected from our wombs. And so Tia empowers women to get personal with their anatomy, learn what’s “normal” for them, and to trust their body’s signals so they can move forward with clarity, agency, and care, and become confident self-advocates in a challenging and impersonal medical system. With a frank, compassionate overview of the female reproductive system and the ways in which fertility and pregnancies can go awry, she offers advice about how to tend to your womb and all its connected systems to support the best outcomes possible.
Tia shares:
- Exercises to connect you with your genitals
- Self-massage techniques for the vulva and abdomen
- Steps to identify your reproductive health “baseline”
- The 5 S’s of fertility and womb health
- Advice for navigating the fog of grief
- Guidance for moving into menopause with vitality
